What Ever Happened To the Morals In Life

Seems like a dream Has over taken us now Tossed in this turmoil I'm not quite sure how We've all become numbers In this nameless place Have pity on the whole human race We've spent years of our future Trying to run from the past Relying on memories That never did last With so many questions Who can we ask Where are the morals that we used to have Whatever happened to the morals in life We opened the window They flew into the night Can anyone tell me how we'll ever get by Without the morals that once held us so tight The fewer the heartbeats The shorter the time The deeper the cavern The harder the climb The more that we look for The less that we find Of the morals that we left behind Whatever happened to the morals in life We opened the window They flew into the night Can anyone tell me how we'll ever survive Without the morals that we once had in life

Excellent write and so true. Nice style. Check out 1 Corinthinans 6:9-11, if you wish. There is still hope for those willing to change before the end comes!

A sad and truthful write, Mike. Lack of morality is going to cause us to implode. Immorality is destroying our youth. Ok, I'll get off my soapbox now. Well done, Mike. Blessings, Kim

Beautifully written. The rhythm of the poem is like a sad melody mourning the loss of the Morals of Life. If only we could learn how to listen again and to communicate in a format that goes beyond the 140 or so characters of texting, we may redeem ourselves:) Amitiés
